Fur Collar Coats

If the notion of fur collars brings to mind mothballs and grandma’s closet, it’s time to think again.

Cutting edge designers like Miuccia Prada for Miu Miu and rising star Matthew Earnest are tweaking the classic with unexpected shapes (Earnest’s ultrachic pea-coat silhouette) and rougher hewn pelts for an edgy, deconstructed look. The overall look: a little bit vintage, a little bit punk, and a whole lot stylish.
